Very Proud Parents

Quite an emotional day today as our son finished his three years at his infant school and will be moving up to the junior school in September. Most parents will agree that time really flies during the school years and to quote a cliche it honestly feels like it was just yesterday that we were dropping him off for his first day.

Today was the leavers assembly, where we got to see picture progression of the classes through the three years (wife in tears) a play about the Pied Piper, some time for quick pictures in the school playground and then a final show with songs and music from the kids celebrating their time at school (wife in tears). To top it all off Dylan also won the Most Outstanding Achievement Award for the three years at the school (wife and me in tears). A very proud moment for us all, well done indeed Dylan.

Here's Dylan in his playground.

This weekends wedding in Sweden

Another overseas wedding to report on. This one was just after my birthday and in Sweden. A beautiful small fishing village called Molle hosted the amazing wedding of Helena and Robert.

An Anglo/Swedish mix of guests and of course the lovely couple made this a very memorable wedding with picture opportunities galore. After the Friday night party it was onto the wedding on Saturday which was held in a lovely church which reminded me of a lego construction (blocky). Then it was off for some pictures at the beach and nearby meadow and onto the reception at The Grand Hotel overlooking the bay.

As with any overseas wedding I must say a very big thank you to Helena and Robert for looking after us so well and all their family and friends for making us feel so welcome. I look forward to sharing their whole wedding story with you in due course. Visit the Elton Mogg Photography website
